Directions of this Vegan Spaghetti Recipe:

1. To make spaghetti with tomato sauce, start by preparing the sauce. Pour the extra virgin olive oil in a pan with the peeled and halved garlic clove (1), so you can remove the core and make the scent more delicate. Cook for 2 minutes over high heat, add the peeled tomatoes (2) and salt (3).



Make Sure Oil Covers Bottom of Pan Evenly.




2. Cover with a lid and cook for at least 1 hour over very low heat: the sauce should simmer gently (4). Mix it from time to time. After this time, remove the garlic (5) and pass the tomatoes through a sieve (6) to obtain a smooth and homogeneous puree.



Tip: Use Strainer with Fine Mesh.




3. Pour the sauce (7) back into the pan, turn the heat to very low and add the basil leaves (8). After a few minutes, turn off the sauce and keep it warm. All you have to do now is cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water (9).



Tip: Use Separate Pot for Pasta.




4. Drain the spaghetti al dente directly into the sauce (10) and stir for a few moments over high heat to mix everything together (11). Your spaghetti with tomato sauce is ready, all you have to do is serve it, garnished with fresh basil to taste (12)!



Tip: Use Fresh Basil Leaves for a Sweet Flavor.
